Topic: Odd shadow looking stuff under model (Read 4267 times)

Here is an image of my model with some strange looking dark areas surrounding it in small areas that look as if they might resemble shadowing but not really. Any idea what setting I use to eliminate these as I get them very often.

Hi Thomas. Thanks for the suggestions. I'm not sure if I have the shadow quality turned up for this shot or not? I know I've messed around with that only a little, and it seemed to increase my render time considerably so I went back to a setting of 1 (default). But I will try that and see if that helps. I do know that it isn't intersecting the ground plane though. Everything is on top and sitting directly on it.

OK I just upped the shadow quality to 7. The oddities went significantly down but not gone completely. It only goes up to 10. Do I have to set the shadow quality all the way up to 10 for everything I do just to be sure I don't get the wierd stuff? That will make my rendering times go through the roof!
